Do you plan on ordering the new Apple Watch Series 7 (2021) this September?

Unbelievable!! overnight from Melbourne lol. Amazon must have priority with AP.

9:15 am Package arrived at carrier facility.
Coffs Harbour, NSW AU
Amazon Prime sends stuff out and I get it usually in a day or two, three days at most.

But Apple probably paid extra for overnight express.

And I really think the parcel volumes have come down and Auspost is catching up. Got watch bands from Apple via parcel post the next day after I ordered.

Upgraded to watchOS 8.1 and I’m at the gym on the treading tracking my run. Then suddenly Siri tells me exercise ring closed?!?

I don’t have Siri announce message on at all and it never happened until I updated the watchOS.

Anyone else?
Yes, she can give fitness updates now.
Go Watch app, then down to workouts and toggle to your liking. In my finding, your watch can’t be on silent or that will cancel out the setting. Even if you have on AirPods Pro, PowerBeats Pro, other Bluetooth etc it still gets cancelled which I feel is a slight oversight.

Thanks mate didn’t know this was a new setting.

But why would it disconnect my AirPods? I’m working out listening to music and she disconnects the headphones?

I don’t understand this either. I think it’s set up to come solely from the watch since it’s a workout feature…BUT I feel like Siri should take the same route as the current audio, no matter the source.
